When the term "golden child" is brought up, most people think of the tibetan monks and the belief that a child prodigy will come save the world.

LOL! I'm a Tibetan Buddhist and I can't stand the GC.

Never heard that belief though about a 'golden child'. Perhaps a 'golden child' that is extremely enlightened, but not a savior. No saviors in Buddhism. Just an FYI.

I would hope a Buddhist GC would have more compassion and wisdom than the one in VV and not just make parties. I've had GC's that don't do anything really helpful at all like restoring the crops, multiplying the berries, etc. All they do is chase butterflies, make parties and dance.

I do agree that the GC is VV does look very much like a young Buddhist monk. But Buddhist nuns look the same way too.
